In Unit 1, the basic pillars of TEFL are explained; teachers and learners. The fundamental characteristics needed for being a good teacher are laid out. Such as having a kind, patient and attentive disposition. And, being able to teach students sensitively, inclusively and never embarrassing them. This unit also lays out the different levels of student learners. It explains how students can be complete beginners with no knowledge of English at all. And that there is a wide intermediate range of speakers that can get along with basic to intermediate English but many errors. The very advanced speakers can discuss almost any topic but still haven't reached fluency and lack the ability to speak at nuanced English. Also, learners' ages and cultural backgrounds can affect how well they learn. Older learners are more motivated since they generally choose to study the language by their own choice. And, younger learners generally are less so since they may not have made the choice to study ESL on their own. The Unit also explains how motivation to improve one's work prospects can help motivate and ESL learner. Or, simply to be able to travel to an English speaking country, speak to English speaking friends or improve performance in test taking. All in all it highlights the need for a teacher to care more about the quality of their students' learning than of the teachers' teaching.
